Some more changes were published this afternoon:
In particular, they use the Nottingham-Newark-Lincoln section of the DG map.
This is a "doubleback" easement rather than a "local" one. I can't check at the moment, but I think this means that it has no effect on a journey between (say) Stapleton Road and Bristol Parkway.
Changes from 24 Oct 2019 (281) to 30 Oct 2019 (282).
